Going back 19 years ago...

---------------------

The festive season is on its peak, it is Christmas Eve, and within a few days, it would be the celebration

for New Year. Not just any New Year but the start of the new millennium. Some people interpreted this

day as the apocalypse. Some would say cataclysmic events would occur.

But this is the least of John Eve's concern at the moment. He was having the best time of his life with

his special someone, Lily Winterfrost. Tonight, he was planning to propose to her, on Christmas Eve.

Little did he know that this would be the last day that he would be with his beloved girl. Lily Winterfrost,

on the other hand, was planning to say goodbye to John, she could not commit her whole self to him

because of this life mission she was destined to do.

Lily, along with her younger sister Rain, plays a big role as Soul Drifters, a secret society that would

protect humanity from any coming threat. It was revealed to them that on the night of Dec 31, 1999,

demons would gather and create large portals for the passage of the Demonlords. This is the beginning

of the prophesized Armageddon.

---------

Soul Drifters are chosen human who are able to travel the astral world and use the power of light to

battle against evil. They can use partial amount of their powers on a very limited time on the Human

Realm. Most carriers dedicate themselves to some personal mission as they explore the secrets of the

astral plane. Often, they discover the depths of their own souls in the process. Soul Drifters have a sealnovelbin

on their body as a sign of their alliance to the light(this is also known as the Seal of Light), Soul

Drifters are divided into two faction, the Keepers of the Portal and the Carriers of the Seal.

----------

This book covers the chronological events 18 years back from the original timeline of Book 1 up to the

present state where Mat will discover the rise of a new threat to all Carriers of the Seal.

The story begins with the young John Eve discovering that his bestfriend Lily Winterfrost is a

demonslayer. Lily told John about her mission as a Carrier of the Seal of Light. This mission forced

them to end their friendship. Lily left the disheartened John, clueless of where she would go and what

would happen to them.

Lily, with the help of her younger sister Rain, and another carrier named Seth defeated the demon

Karasu from setting up a portal that will connect to the underworld to the human realm. The failed portal

blew up and destroyed the warehouse. John, who was lurking from the outside, rushed in to help Lily

but he accidentally had Lily's younger sister Rain instead.

The backstory continues tapping some events on the first war on an Astral Isle, John Eve and Rain

Winterfrost having a child, the young Summer Eve, the new generation of Carriers of the Seal.

The parallel events on the human realm during the Crescent Island War(book1), The post event after

the war, and the revelation of Jimmy Fang that will lead to the fall of Mat Adam and the rest of the

Carriers.
